Boils, Pimples And Blackheads On Bikini Line, Inner Thighs And Bum, Painful, Leave Scars And Holes On Bursting. Cause And Cure?
I get boils, pimples and blackheads on my bikini line, inner thighs and bum. They are painful and often take a week or two before forming a pussy head and bursting. It is embarrasing and have around 10 at any time. once they burst i am left with holes and have many dark purple/red scars coving the whole area. What are these and how an i get rid of them?

Hi, N.marie,
Thanks for query.
Common cause for having boils,pimples are fungal infection or hair follicle infection.
Due to itching there is infection leading to boils,bump.
So if you got fungal infection,go for treatment and you will be alright.
Apply triple action cream on the part.
At present go for antibiotic medicines for 3-5 days to clear infection,
Keep local hygiene clean,dry and airy.
Ok and bye.
